Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
since they give you y this is a very simple problem
simply replace y with -3 and get
3x+(-3)=6
adding a negative number is the same as subtracting a positive number
3x-3=6
add 3 on both sides
3x=9
divide by 3 on both sides
x=3
The answer would be the following:
9 x - 4 = 4x + 16
(x+5)/4=1/2
first get rid of the fraction
multiply both sides by 4
x+5=2
subtract 5
x=-3
(2x+1)/(4x-1)=2/3
get rid of the fractions,
multiply both sdies by (4x-1)(3)
(2x+1)(3)=(2)(4x-1)
distribute
6x+3=8x-2
subtract 6x form both sdies
3=2x-2
add 2
5=2x
divide by 2
5/2=x
Answer: q = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the quadratic formula as
x = [-b +/-√(b^2 -4ac)]/2a
b = -14
a = 1
c = q
Difference d between the two roots.
d = [-b + √(b^2 -4ac)]/2a - [-b -√(b^2 -4ac)]/2a
d = 2√(b^2 -4ac)/2a
d = √(b^2 -4ac)/a
And d = 6
Substituting the values of a,b and c. We have;
6 = √[(-14^2) - (4×1×q)]
Square both sides
6^2 = 196 - 4q
4q = 196 - 36
q = 160/4
q = 40
The equation becomes
x^2 - 14x + 40 = 0
The total area of Alaska in sq miles is 591,004 sq miles.
